Has anyone gotten a different reaction? I have a LEGITIMATE pre-existing condition. I contacted my doctor and was told they don't know but best guess they will not get any vaccines till March.

No mass system can or will be fair to all. I'm glad I do not need to make choices for all.

What should be vs what is. We all know of people buying vests on Amazon stating their dog is a service dog same with special parking.

From what I’ve read she cannot get it until it’s available for her age group. Many 65 and over also have auto immune conditions and they are still working on enough availability for them.

I decided to take my chances with the vaccine rather than Covid. I have allergies but my only reaction to both doses was very slight soreness at the injection site.

Where did you hear that? Per science, nobody has died and only a very few have had bad reactions.

You need a new doctor.

It seems that there is an entirely separate process to get a vaccine if you are medically vulnerable. On Friday I got an update newsletter from City of Wildwood (I had signed up for this). It included this information from the Sumter County Health Department:


At the State of Florida website, there is a tab referring to the vaccination of medically vulnerable individuals. While a list of medical conditions or their severity is not available, over 28,000 vaccines were distributed to 27 large medical centers in Florida. The list of servicing hospitals may change over time. Please know that this activity is performed only by selected hospitals/medical centers (and not the health department). The nearest hospitals that received these doses for this purpose are: Advent Health Orlando, Orlando Health—Orlando Regional Medical Center, and UF Health—Shands Hospital.


So you (or your doctor?) need to contact one of those 3 hospitals to learn how to get on their list.

First, a way I know works, go to a place taking first-come without appointments. Be sure to bring the letter from your doctor that she qualifies because of her co-morbidity. The second way that I suspect would work, would be to lie about her birthdate online and then bring the letter to the appointment and have them change her birth date. It also wouldn’t hurt to bring the executive order from DeSantis allowing under 65 with co-morbidities. That’s easy enough to find online.

My wife has a severe lung problem with the virus being a death sentence for her. I called the senator's office and they said it would be taken care of. A call from them 2 days later and they said they went to the idiot in charge of Sumter county health and he said NO WAY!!! no exceptions. I don't think he is very sensetive to people's needs in this county. We went to Lake county and she got her shots as well as myself.

People with underlying health conditions that weaken their immune systems (such as cancer or HIV) or who have severe allergies to some vaccine components may not be able to get vaccinated - WHO (World Health Organization)

Vaccines can cause anaphylaxis and other dangerous life-threatening side effects. - NIH (National Institute of Health)

Example: The United States stopped giving mandatory smallpox vaccinations 30 years ago. Some people die from it; and others have serious reactions, some permanent. Scientists say it's the most dangerous vaccine known to man. - CBS News, 60 Minutes

These new COVID vaccines were rushed into use with extremely short trial periods. According to the IFPMA, the development of novel vaccines is a long endeavor. It takes usually between 10 to 15 years to develop a novel vaccine, as well as establishing its quality, safety and efficacy. - International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations

Thus, for those who have had COVID, getting vaccinated iis not only pointless but potentially dangerous. - David H. Dallas, RN-ASN, EMT-P, retired
